I'm just having trouble linking a router system that is already working and set up in my house to an account because I I realize I never made an account on your app. And the app cannot seem to find the the the router system. So it it prompts you on the app to to to give support a call, which is you guys. Yeah. So so I don't I don't have, I don't know. Basically, man, I I have an existing Linsys router. It is connected. I have Wi-fi, it works well. I don't have a Linsys account. So I made a Linsys account. I now have a Linsys account. And when you log into your account, it says, hey, do you want to link this account with your router system? We can either set up a new router system or you can you can merge your account with an existing router.

Okay. So just to make sure, you're trying to log in to the app using your account, right? Are you doing remote, are you planning to do remote access? Yeah.

system. And so you try to do that and it searches for the router system, says, hey, connect to the same Wi-Fi and then we'll find your router and you just click this button and it searches and when I try to do that, it says, we can't find your router. Call customer support. So that's where I'm at right now. Yes, I've got the serial number for you which is: 32N10M as in Montana. 39900319 and then you need the model number as well. Model number is MX5300- 5- 3- - 0 o.

What is your first name and last name? [silence] What is your email address? [silence] And who is your internet provider? [silence]

Uh, so, I can get, so, okay. When you log in on the app, there's two ways to log in. You can either create an account, right? Or you can just login via the router. I can log in via the router just fine. That all works. But I wanted to make an account because specifically when your internet is down and you don't have access to the router, the router is not working properly. there's no way to get into your account because you don't have one, right? And so what I'm trying to do is I'm trying to make an account, which I've done, I've made an account. And now I just want the account to recognize that my router is a part of my setup, my system, my account. So I have an account and I've made an account. Now, my question is, is there a way that you can connect your router and let the system know that my router is now part of this account?

Have you tried using the router password to log into your Linksys account? Let me make sure that's still possible because as far as I remember I Think it has been discontinued the cloud server I mean. So you can no longer link your account through email, so but let me double check that here. [silence]
04:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. All right. Well, that answers my question. Thank you so much. Have a great day. Yeah. Bye.
07:00
Speaker 2
I thank you so much for patiently waiting on the line. So I double checked that here and it it seems like it's really discontinued. So you can no longer associate your account to um your email handler. You can only log in using the local access. You too, have a great day.
